I owe it all to Writing Workshop because all of these occur in our 2nd grade classroom. :) I could not ask for more energy, determination and focus in our room during Writing Workshop. If I could store in a jar the excitement and learning that happen every day during Writing Workshop, I would be a millionaire! :)
If you are not doing Writing Workshop, please consider it! If you need help with any resources to get your started, please do not hesitate to ask! I LOVE talking about Writing Workshop, and I love teaching Writing Workshop even more!
Ummmm...I think I just said WRITING WORKSHOP 15 times! :)
During my time in Hinsdale with the Illinois Writing Project two summers ago, one participant in my workshop asked me if I ever considered consultation work. Woah. What an honor to have been asked that. I am doing consultation work right now with the Illinois Writing Project. I am living the dream. :)
These books are new for me through Heinemann Publishing. I hope my order comes soon! I cannot wait to incorporate more anchor charts in my classroom this coming school year!! I have always had students be included in the process of creating the anchor charts that they will be referring to in the classroom, but these books have amazing strategies that I need to know about!! Do own these in your library??
